DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: Integrating wind renewable into traditional grids sta
 rted accelerating in early 2000’s followed by large solar farms much rec
 ently. Conventional generation are all synchronous based technology while 
 the renewable farms that are not based on traditional machines were treate
 d with simplistic models for grid security planning\, analysis and operati
 on. Nirmal has contributed towards proposing and validating realistic and 
 effective large-scale wind farm models. In 2008 NZ was about 70% renewable
  with primarily synchronous generation from hydro and geothermal and appro
 ximate model was fine but with increasing contribution more realistic cohe
 rency-based model proposed was found useful. Special contribution also ext
 ends to development of two separate grid ride through characteristics for 
 New Zealand as its power systems have two island networks separated by HVD
 C lines particularly relevant now with around 88% renewable NZ grid and ha
 ving separate allowable frequency bands.\nThese contributions on ride-thro
 ugh and load-shedding schemes as applied to NZ grid has informed wind farm
  ride-through grid codes and extended reserves design by NZ Electricity Au
 thority. NZ relevant IEEE publications\, CIGRE reports\, inputs to NZ Elec
 tricity Engineer’s Association guides and mentoring PhDs\, Masters and u
 ndergraduates in this area has enabled new technical skills and capabiliti
 es to the workforce.\n\nSpeaker(s): \, Professor Nirmal Nair\n\nRoom: 003\

X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>ABSTRACT: Integrating wind renewable into 
 traditional grids started accelerating in early 2000&rsquo\;s followed by 
 large solar farms much recently. Conventional generation are all synchrono
 us based technology while the renewable farms that are not based on tradit
 ional machines were treated with simplistic models for grid security plann
 ing\, analysis and operation. Nirmal has contributed towards proposing and
  validating realistic and effective large-scale wind farm models. In 2008 
 NZ was about 70% renewable with primarily synchronous generation from hydr
 o and geothermal and approximate model was fine but with increasing contri
 bution more realistic coherency-based model proposed was found useful. Spe
 cial contribution also extends to development of two separate grid ride th
 rough characteristics for New Zealand as its power systems have two island
  networks separated by HVDC lines particularly relevant now with around 88
 % renewable NZ grid and having separate allowable frequency bands.<br />Th
 ese contributions on ride-through and load-shedding schemes as applied to 
 NZ grid has informed wind farm ride-through grid codes and extended reserv
 es design by NZ Electricity Authority. NZ relevant IEEE publications\, CIG
 RE reports\, inputs to NZ Electricity Engineer&rsquo\;s Association guides
  and mentoring PhDs\, Masters and undergraduates in this area has enabled 
 new technical skills and capabilities to the workforce.</p>
